Who has experience and expertise in US policy and Asian affairs? And where is our ambassador on all this?? Oh, wait! Trump has cut the State Department and has yet to appoint ambassadors - even at this late date - to numerous major countries, including a currently essential one for South Korea. So one of his kids who has the free time will have to do...

Most current monarchies have separate functioning governments. It's dictatorships that only trust family members to represent them, consolidating power.

NBC repeatedly showing her is ruining what is otherwise a very nice closing ceremony. Nobody wants to see that vile, little creature--unless she's in an orange jumpsuit and being frogmarched to prison.

Living the dream....... their dream

Its looking like the US is going to heal itself in part by watching the Trump family disintegrate before our very eyes by living what they thought was the Trump reality but turns out it was just a fantasy based on selfish greed.

Now we know why Trump constantly went bankrupt, but now it's no longer a problem since he - and his extended - family - are no longer paying their way. This is just his latest moneymaking scheme, and it's working out better than he ever anticipated.

simply striking. And all the people who cling to her and are star struck, I say WTF!! What has she ever accomplished on her own? Who the fuck elected her to represent The United States? I am so sick of seeing her strutting around with her bleached hair and whitened teeth, like her shit doesn’t stink. She is sucking off the hard work of the athletes and pointing the attention away from them and onto her. What a tone death, Big Bird looking fame whore she is. Not to mention her idiot husband who has the worst political instincts in modern history. She parades around like she hasn’t a care in the world. Talk about compartmentalism, she is the Queen. If she or her fool of a husband had any sense they would have high tailed it out of Washington months ago. I’m happy she didn’t. It’s going to be fun watching her titantically big teeth sink along with the rest of her family. Donnie turns everything to shit. Can’t wait to see him turn his daughter into a big turd.
